Overview

Features

Wide and long zoom range, yet compact and lightweightComplying with the Micro Four Thirds System standard, the LUMIX G VARIO 14-140mm / F3.5-5.6 ASPH. / POWER O.I.S. (H-FS14140) offers a wide and long zoom range of 14-140mm (35mm camera equivalent: 28-280mm) in a stylishly compact and lightweight form. The lens has high versatility and mobility and can be used to capture subjects up close or for shooting impressive portraits with beautifully defocused backgrounds.

High optical performance featuring 3 aspherical lenses and 2 ED lensesComprising of 14 elements in 12 groups, the lens system features three aspherical lenses and two ED (Extra-low Dispersion) lenses to achieve dramatic downsizing despite its powerful 10x optical zoom, while minimising distortion and chromatic aberration.

POWER O.I.S. for greater correction performanceThe POWER O.I.S ( Optical Image Stabiliser) boasts double repression power compared to the MEGA O.I.S. It is particularly effective for a low-frequency vibration, which is physically generated when pressing the shutter button or when shooting at night with a slow shutter speed. This greatly improves the quality of shots taken at night or indoors where flash cannot be used, or where the photographer doesn't want to use flash because it would spoil the mood. It captures beautiful photos in situations that previously resulted in blurring.

Smooth, silent operation with inner focus drive system and stepping motorIncorporating an inner focus drive system and stepping motor, the Lumix G Vario 14-140mm / F3.5-5.6 ASPH. / POWER O.I.S. (H-FS14140) is capable of smooth, silent operation to work with the camera’s high-speed, high-precision contrast AF system for both photo and video recording. It is also compatible with the sensor drive at max. 240 fps to take maximum advantage of cameras with high-speed AF such as DMC-GH3 and the new DMC-G6.

Nano Surface Coating TechnologyPanasonic have applied an extra-low refractive index coating with nano-sized structure on the surface of the lens. The resulting pictures are clear, with dramatic reduction of ghosts and flare.

Aspherical lensesThese lenses prevent spherical and distortion aberrations, so higher magnification can be achieved with fewer lenses. Resulting in smaller size and weight, these lenses feature the high dimensional accuracy of Panasonic’s cutting-edge production technologies, including concave lenses that measure just 0.3mm at their thinnest part.Designed to compensate for hands-shake ‘blur’, the MEGA O.I.S’s internal LSI compensates by processing the output of the gyrosensors at approximately 4,000 times a second. What you see in the Live View Finder or LCD image is what you get in the shot (especially effective when using a zoom lens).

Multi-coating ProcessIn addition to a standard broadband anti-reflection coating, Lumix G/Leica DG lenses reduce the reflection of light entering at an angle. Widely used on fisheye and ultra-wide-angle lenses, this coating greatly improves results when shooting against a light source, resulting in high quality images with superb clarity.

Ordered the lens on Wed and it was in Bendigo the next day. Only had limited use of the lens so far but extremely happy with the clarity and versatility, works very well with the Olympus camera.

I've had this lens before, but managed to break it and decided to buy another. It's a good all-purpose lens that supports Dual IS 2 on the GH5, so it's a great walkaround/travel/all-purpose lease. Ryda had the best price and delivered quickly — many thanks.

This is my first review - and it's in two parts.
The first part about RYDA and the amazing service I got.
The second part about the great lens.

BUYING THIS ITEM FROM RYDA

I am a first time purchaser from RYDA, I've never bought anything from you before and I've never visited your store - either online or on Parramatta Road.
I was looking around for a month or so to find a good price on this Lumix 14-140mm lens, as it's not cheap, and it's usually around $600+ on eBay and around the Aussie sites.
When I saw the lens on your site, just through general searches, it was a good price and under $500 - and then just before Christmas you also had a special Xmas Bonus Discount of a further 10% which brought it back to around $450 - which was the cheapest price anywhere.
I still ummed and aahhed about getting it - - - but then did.
I registered with your website for the first time on Christmas Day (Monday 25th) - and I bought the lens then. Christmas Day - a public holiday.
The next day Tuesday 26th (Boxing Day) I got an email to say the order had been received and DISPATCHED. Amazing!
The following morning at 9am Wednesday 27th December - it was hand delivered at the door.
It was safely and securely packed and padded and in perfect condition.

So to say that I was amazed and delighted with the service - is hardly enough - it was incredible. Bought Xmas Day - sent Boxing Day - delivered the next morning.

I have bought many things on eBay from here and overseas - and also bought a few things from other online eStores - - but this is without doubt the BEST experience and service I have ever had.

Thank you RYDA. and I really mean it.

The LUMIX 14-140MM LENS

I read all the reviews I could find - and it was highly rated by nearly everyone.

It is a fantastic all-purpose, go anywhere, zoom lens - that literally covers just about any normal photography need you have.

It's light, well made, smooth. It's super sharp, and the AF is fast and accurate.

I'm delighted with it - and have been using it regularly these past few weeks and taken many hundreds of different photos under all conditions - - and I'm totally happy with it and the excellent images it gives.

I do lots of multiple exposure HDRs and also large panoramas every day - and I've used it for macros, portraits, landscapes and night shots - - and it's been excellent for everything.

I have several different cameras, of different brands, and a selection of lens for them - - but right now I'm just loving carrying this Lumix GH2 camera with the new 14-140mm lens on it, around for all my general photos.

If you have a Panasonic Lumix camera - then you can't go wrong with one of these lenses on it.

. . . . so truly . . if you ask me . . you can't do better than buy it here - the price and service I got was just the best.
